Sorry but you aren’t going to convince me to just trust random strangers on the internet with a vested financial interest in gaining clicks/likes/shares/subs about random stuff they say, especially when its something so brazen.
The whole thing clearly looks fake as fuck. People need a healthy dose of skepticism when it comes to shit like instagram/twitter/tiktok and whatnot, which was the medium this was shared over.
Nothing about that picture remotely looks like what it claims to be, the fuck kind of “moms and tots” group posts and shares that way, come on, use your head for a second and imagine the scenario playing out.
Even going with the absolute maximum benefit of the doubt, whatever way you try and frame it you still end up painting an incredibly bizarre nonsensical scenario that just. doesnt. make. sense.
The only scenarios that make sense based on the way it was shared, the way it was setup, and the way it has been followed up on are:
A: It was manufactured upset by the person who posted it. They created it all as a hoax to gain further subscriptions to their platform, which they have a vested financial interest in expanding.
B: It was created by a troll, who thought it would be funny to see it spread virally
Ask yourself some simple questions here:
How come the paper for the telegram post was the exact same one that got caught and put up on twitter? What are the odds?
How come there has only been one of these posted and shared anywhere, and how come only once? Surely there must have been other pictures of these flyers by other citizens?
The only conclusion you can make is… there was only one flyer taped up? And that one got taken down as soon as the picture was taken? Who goes to all that length to make the telegram, make the group, get a QR code, setup a (supposedly real) email, make a flyer all typed up… and then just only posts up one solitary flyer?
And what are the odds that that one solitary flyer gets found moments afterwards by, coincidentally, the owner of “BlackVancouver”, a twitter/instagram that is pretty much entirely all about spreading around posts about trying to find racial injustices, and has recently been trying to get more subs/likes?
And despite all that, the telegram still today has no members/new posts.
And the email is a proton one? The fuck? What mom and tot group have you ever met that seriously uses fucking proton mail as their provider?
And jesus look at the chosen email and the chosen telegram name. It’s twenty eight characters long. No normal person, especially one looking to share the group via flyer, ever makes something like that
I mean come on, this isn’t sherlock holmes here, the thing is riddled with so many goddamn holes, a sieve would hold water better.
People like to be outraged. It makes them feel correct for not being the racist one and confirm how they already want to feel about others.
It’s also easier for a brain to confirm what it already wants to believe. Good write up but I am unsure how good it would do of convincing those that need it that sometimes people just make rage bait to get people to think alike with them or because they are edgelords that think it’s funny.
But you know as a wise Republican white commissioner in PA once said “I’m a black gay guy”
There’s something about it that makes me think it a “to catch a predator” type meeting to out a bunch of white supremacists. Are they really trying to fish for contact information or get them to actually meet in a room? On the telegram link: “Hello everybody, we are encouraged by the response already and hope you can hang in there until we are all comfortable going in person.”
The thing is that post was made almost as soon as the group was made, which doesnt even make sense, as no members were added yet.
Smells like fish.
Also curious if there have been other sightings of this flyer, or if it was the only one? If you only post one flyer in an obscure place, it’s a lot easier to be the main source of documenting a flyer was posted on social media.
I looked around and all I could find was that one single solitary post/source, uploaded once, and literally zero other sightings/info indicating actual flyers were distributed.

That’s more responsible journalism with due diligence. Weird thing is both social media links are basically the same post. The X comment is just someone reposing a screenshot from the Black Vancouver instagram.
On one hand: “CBC News located some of the signs, which had been partially removed, at the Coquitlam Centre, a shopping mall in the Vancouver suburb of Coquitlam, B.C.”
On the other: “As soon as it was brought to our attention, bylaw officers immediately searched the area and all bus stops, but no signs were present. Perhaps being removed by someone else,” said a joint statement from the city and Mayor Brad West."
The article does have a pic of a difference poster than the black vancouver instagram though. Curious if there’s CTV footage to figure out who did this if it was at a shopping mall basically.
This article refers to multiple signs, in two municipalities. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/whites-only-mother-tots-group-condemned-british-columbia-1.6977449
Cope snd seethe harder
I dont have anything to gain and I think you’re a fucking knob. You wrote a whole ass essay on why you think a racist action isn’t real. How about spending five minutes with some country folk? You’ll shut the fuck up real quick.
Ah yes, the type of people who will make a well formatted and very clearly legible flyer, complete with a qr code, telegram group, and proton email.
That definitely sounds like the sort of thing “country folk” are so well known for doing all the time.
You are out to lunch if you think this solitary piece of paper looks real, lol
